What a genuinely wonderful man he is.
Following its first publication in a Reddit thread, Keanu Reeves’ kind gesture for an 80-year-old fan has since been reposted online.
One user of the website described how their grandmother had formed feelings for the John Wick and Matrix actor because he made her think of her late husband.
The grandmother, who had a stroke in her early 70s and spent the next ten years bound to her home, found peace in Keanu Reeves’ films, seeing everything from Bill and Ted to The Matrix.
The Reddit user continued by describing how their uncle stumbled with Keanu Reeves at a restaurant in Los Angeles, which resulted in a protracted phone discussion between the actor and his old fan.
They stated, “My uncle was sitting at a fairly upscale restaurant not too long after The Matrix came out when Keanu came in with a woman.
“My uncle approached their table after he finished eating and said, “I don’t usually do this, but I just wanted you to know that my 80-year-old mother loves you and has seen all of your movies. You make her think of my dad.
When he confirmed that he did, Keanu reportedly added, “Give her a call, I want to talk to her,” after asking him if he had a cell phone with him.
“He spoke with my grandmother for a while, and it truly made her year. She was so alone, and he actually showed kindness and interest in her, demonstrating what a truly amazing man he is.
Reeves has developed a reputation as one of Hollywood’s kindest guys over the years, and many of his fans have come out to share their pleasant experiences with the actor.
The actor gained national attention last month after a video of him interacting peacefully with a little fan in an airport went viral.
Following a journey from London to New York, the actor was approached by a young boy who requested his autograph. The boy then continued to ask the actor “a series of rapid-fire questions,” as TV producer Andrew Kimmel tweeted.
Kimmel tweeted under a photo of them both, “Keanu happily responded to every single one,” and added, “The man could not have been nicer, especially after an international flight. A guy is a class act, and simple things like this can have a hugely positive impact on people’s lives, so I thought I’d share it. More Keanus are required!
John Wick 4 will be released on March 24, 2023, and Reeves is scheduled to appear in it.

A Walk in the Clouds was my favorite.
I’ve loved everything I’ve seen him in but I’ll bet I’ve seen Constantine 10 or 15 times. I’m a total sucker for Mr Reeves and also a good scary movie. Two in one makes for a winner all around. Another favorite is A Walk in the Clouds. Mr. Reeves continues to amazes me with his humility and kindness to all.
I am 65 and am a fan of Keanu. He is continually getting caught doing nice things. I don’t read enough good news anymore, so it always raises hope for mankind a bit, in my opinion. He can call anytime! Lol
I’m 72 and a huge fan of Keanu Reeves as well, not only for his acting which has been amazing in everything I’ve seen of his but also who he is apart from the film industry. I am impressed by his kindness, his humility and all the wonderful humanitarian acts he has performed and I’m so proud to be able to call him a fellow Torontonian.
He is a true knight in shining armour. He’s been through a lot, and he still remained a great and decent human being. Respect.
Simply amazing what he does. My alltime favorite movie is Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure.
It’s nice to know that there are still good caring people in this crazy world. Mr. Reeves you enlighten my days as well as a lot of other people. You are an angel among us.
He’s done such great films. My favorite 1st Matrix and 1st John Wick. Your a good EXSAMPEL of a man.
